I sympathize, Mercedes. To be fair, though, four were quoted, five if you include Charles Dixens. They were all men, which led me to wonder how high the percentage of that 1/3 of 'no' ran. Men are always so much better at this.

Delegate -- find somebody to do the mundane things whenever possible and cherry-pick the stuff you want to do. That way you make better use of your time and hopefully make it more enjoyable to do.

I know what you mean, though. I find it very hard to turn down work, especially if it's something I really want to do. You get into the mindset that you will make time, but in reality you either can't, or you kinda do, but don't make as good a job of it as you should have, and then you feel guilty about it.
